(Ticket price is for all 5 sessions - 10 hours in total.)

This series of five Zoom sessions will focus on how we can amplify our connection to the elements, and how this can bring us into deeper relationship with the interconnectedness of all life and the animate earth.

Throughout our journey we will explore ways to ease stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, and generally support your wellbeing.***

Spirit

Connecting first to the ever-present web of life. We are all one, we are all borne of the earth, are nourished by it and return to it in time. There is no separation between 'us' and 'nature. Nature connection exists as a constant, yet our perceoption of it can diminish.

Earth

What seeds are we planting at this time? What is bubbling up under the soil, awaiting germination?

Water

Water is synonymous with flow, life and emotion. How can we connect with water to invite the flow of movement we desire, which serves our higher self and brings our gifts to the world.

Fire

The spark of life and catalyst of change. How can we turn intention into action? What awareness is necessary to prevent getting burnt, or burned out? Self care.

Air

The winds of change. Air flows from our lungs out into the world around the globe, and vice versa. What new thoughts/patterns do we want to share via these windstreams?

Kim is a HCPC registered Art Therapist and nature-based mindfulness guide. She has previously worked in primary schools, forest school early years provision, and as a support worker with autistic children.

These sessions will be a co-created experiential group journey including breathwork, sensory awareness meditations, nature connection experiences, storytelling, creative exercises, journalling and sharing in groups/pairs.

There will be invitations to do activities between sessions when on your daily walks or in an outdoor space you can access easily.

For the Zoom calls themselves, it doesn't matter if you can't access outdoor space at that specific time. A window can provide a vista of sky to explore, or you could connect with a favourite potted plant, use your imagination, or let photographs help you access a time in memory when you were in nature.

Each session will last 2 hours and will be hosted on Zoom.

If these days/times are not convenient for you please get in touch, nothing is set in stone and it's hard to know when's a good time for people in our 'new normal'. If I get enough requests for a new day I will change it or run another series of sessions on a new day/time.

***Whilst the hope is that this session will in some gentle ways ease stress etc from the perspective of self-help, this is NOT therapy. I do also offer nature-based art therapy. If you are suffering from physical or mental health difficulties this is not a replacement for conventional medical support and medication. Please always see your GP as your first port of call.
